Yogapop: Meditation for Peace

I’ve never been more inspired than by the unity and strength in Charleston this past week. After seeing the violence and divisiveness that similar tragedies have left in their wake in other cities, there was no shortage of fear for what would happen in our city… but Charleston is Strong. We didn’t panic, didn’t point fingers or assign blame, didn’t start arguments, and most importantly, we didn’t invite hate into our hearts. We worked together to track down the killer, and came together to comfort each other and to find peace. It is my sincerest hope that we will never forget, and that we will continue to work together and make Charleston the best it can be.

We have made ourselves an example of unity to the rest of the world, and I have never been more proud to live here.

This meditation was coordinated by Yogapop in honor of the souls we lost and their loved ones.

“Bear with each other and forgive one another if any of you has a grievance against someone. Forgive as the Lord forgave you.And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity.” Colossians 3:13-14
